    Who gets in Bama or Texas?

    This year is the ultimate argument against eye tests, committees, subjectivity, and not having automatic qualifiers. Good riddance to this archaic post season.

    Must be another bad coach

    The below analysis says that, down 9 with fewer than 2 minutes left, your odds are slightly better by kicking the extra point. Go For 2 This is a dive into NFL data after moving the extra point try back. NFL favors going for 2 more often than college because of the new distance for the extra...

    Must be another bad coach

    When to Go for 2 This is a good article that uses data from the NFL to decide when to go for 2. I should note that it’s from 2017, so maybe the data has changed since then. But this article was written after the NFL pushed back the extra point try. There is a chart about half way down that...

    Adam Breneman chimes in

    I agree with your overall sentiment. I don’t know if JoMo is the answer. Second acts often don’t work in football, and I believe there could very well be somebody younger who can do a better job. However, I’m going to disagree with some of your points. 1) Your averages are correct for JoMo’s...

    Bring back Moorehead as OC

    And your point? I was responding to somebody who claimed Moorhead’s offense was the reason for the 2017 loss. The numbers tell a different story.

    Seiders Interim OC. Franklin wants Moorehead back

    This year’s team could very well have more than that.

    Seiders Interim OC. Franklin wants Moorehead back

    People look back on 2016 and 2017 with nostalgia, but PSU wasn’t supposed to be anything special in either of those two years. Moorhead took a three star qb and placed him in a system where he had the best chance to excel. PSU truly punched above its weight in those two years.

    How many 8-2 teams fire the OC?

    PSU is on their 6th OC in 10 years. At this point James Franklin is the common denominator.

    Bring back Moorehead as OC

    Moorhead wasn’t running the ball against that OSU defense. It was impressive we were even in that game given the talent differential between PSU and OSU. Again, if the defense hasn’t given up 19 points in the 4th quarter PSU wouldn’t have needed that first down. Joe Moorhead wasn’t at PSU in...

    Bring back Moorehead as OC

    For sure a first down would’ve iced the game, and the offense couldn’t get it. It happened several times during his tenure. He isn’t above the criticism. But, if you go into Columbus, hang 38 on them, and give your team a 2 touchdown lead in the 4th quarter I’m not pinning the loss on you.

    Bring back Moorehead as OC

    Eh, PSU dropped 38 on the Buckeyes in Columbus. It isn’t Moorhead’s fault that the PSU defense allowed JT Barrett to go 33/39, including 13/13 in the 4th quarter, for 328 yards and 4 tds. I believe Moorehead was Oregon’s OC when they went into Columbus and ran all over OSU. I am by no means...

    Yes. Lobbied for OSU over PSU. Should’ve taken the Sankey approach and said they both belong. Simple.

    Unless you are privy to some private conversation of Greg Sankey that’s all we have. And much better than Delany.

    3-way tie-breaking update

    Show me where he puts one higher than the other. I’ll wait. Everything he said, in multiple years, was that there were several SEC teams that were deserving. End of story. Money is a big part. The largest part. But we were also sold on getting a better shot to win national championships...

    It was an Outkick back in late 2016/early 2017. There used to be a link on this site when it was the McAndrew Board.

    3-way tie-breaking update

    Nobody is saying “which team is more deserving”. You make the case for both. I’m sure the years that Bama and Georgia were both in the playoff the SEC commissioner didn’t think it was ”illogical” to push both. In fact he went on tv and said they both deserved to be in. Not that hard to...

    3-way tie-breaking update

    Why? What prevents you from pushing both? All you have to say, “we play 9 conference games and our schedule is the most difficult. We have earned two spots.” This isn’t mutually exclusive. You don’t have to believe it, but part of your job as commissioner is to promote your conference. Of...
